  1. “Intercept” = Value at age 40 for individuals without FXTAS. “Age” = change in value per year of age for individuals without FXTAS. “FXTAS intercept” = change in intercept value for individuals with FXTAS. “FXTAS slope” = change in slope value for individuals with FXTAS. “0= (=)” = parameter fixed to zero. Only Pm participants included. Nno FXTAS = 44, 26, 16 (visit 1 – visit 3); NFXTAS = 24, 20, 21 (visit 1 – visit 3). * < .05, + < .10 after Benjamini Hochberg correction for multiple comparisons
